EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the elegant beauty of the White Waterlily, Nymphaea alba. The intricate detail captured in this 19th-century print is a testament to the skill and artistry of the time. Richard Duppa, a renowned botanical illustrator, created the original illustration from which this engraving was derived. Duppa's work was published in "The Classes and Orders of the Linnaean System of Botany," a comprehensive botanical reference work published by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown in London in 1816. The White Waterlily is a stunning aquatic plant, its large, pure white flowers floating gracefully atop the water's surface. The plant's large, circular leaves provide a perfect platform for the flowers to bloom, creating a breathtaking sight on the water's surface. The White Waterlily is native to Europe, Asia, and North America, and can be found in still or slow-moving bodies of water. This botanical print is a valuable historical record of the White Waterlily, showcasing its beauty and intricacies in a way that continues to captivate and inspire. The Linnaean System of Botany, established by Carl Linnaeus, is still the standard system for naming and classifying organisms, making this print an essential resource for botanical study. The meticulous attention to detail and the high-quality production techniques used in creating this print make it a true work of art, as well as a valuable scientific document.
